On this day, as soon as the sky was bright, Feng Tiandong, who was sleeping soundly, was woken up by a rapid phone ringing, and it turned out that Ishikawa Ichiro called the hospital and asked him to rush to the Qingtian Mansion immediately.

"Taijun, what happened?" Feng Tiandong didn't dare to delay at all, washed up briefly, ran into Ishikawa Ichiro's office out of breath, and shouted loudly.

"The train carrying grain was ambushed by the Eighth Road, and this is a big trouble." Ichiro Ishikawa walked around the office with a gloomy face and a furrowed brow.

"Ahh Is the loss big? Feng Tiandong exclaimed.

Ishikawa Ichiro slapped the table: "There are no grain particles left in the whole train!" Baga! One million and two hundred thousand catties of grain are gone, Baga! ”

"Fuck! Damn eight ways. Feng Tiandong scolded with Ishikawa Ichiro, but his heart was full of joy, so that before the devil's sweep began, he encountered a big problem.

After a moment of silence, Ishikawa Ichiro stopped and asked, "Feng Sang, how much grain does Guhuai still have now?" ”

"The specific amount, I don't know very well, there should be tens of thousands of catties, Taijun, I'll let them count it."

Seeing Ishikawa Ichiro nodding, Feng Tiandong immediately grabbed the phone on the table, contacted the Listing Office, and arranged for them to count the amount of grain stored in several warehouses.

"Feng Sang, is there another batch of grain that can be collected in the short term?" Ishikawa Ichiro then asked.

"It's hard!" Feng Tiandong replied simply with two words and did not explain further. There is no need for him to explain, Ishikawa Ichiro himself understands that it is impossible to levy grain again, and asking this sentence is just a bit of a fluke.

During this year's wheat harvest season, after a battle for grain with the Eighth Route Army, there was not much grain left in the hands of the people in the occupied areas. If there is, it is also in the hands of some big grain merchants, and it is not that they can be levied, and those who are still in the grain business are not deeply educated, and they are basically related to the Japanese.

Then he walked back and forth in the office for a few steps, and after thinking about it, Ishikawa Ichiro waved his hand and said, "Let's go, Feng Sang, go to the headquarters first." ”

Feng Tiandong followed Ishikawa Ichiro to the Japanese headquarters.

I saw that in the conference room of the headquarters at this time, in addition to General Maeda Akiyu, as well as his chief of staff and other assistants, senior officials of the Municipal Office, Zhao Tianxiang and other officers of the appeasement army were also there, and there was another devil major general who had never seen him.

Last night, the news of the robbery of the grain train had already spread, and the people immediately panicked, and the people who led the troops knew the terrible situation of the lack of food.

Seeing Ishikawa Ichiro come in, Maeda Akiyoke and him glanced at him, both showing a trace of panic.

At present, the Japanese troops gathered around Guhuai have reached more than 8,000 people, plus nearly 5,000 appeasement troops, and the daily food consumption is more than 10,000 catties.

According to the statistics of the Municipal Public Office just now, when the stock is full, the grain in Guhuai's inventory is less than 100,000 catties, not to mention supporting the follow-up sweep, it is difficult to say whether it can be maintained until the beginning of the sweep.

The North China Command's sweeping order has already been issued, and if the grain problem cannot be solved as soon as possible, and the sweep is forcibly started, and no follow-up food supplies can be obtained, and the Eighth Route Army will not need to spend anything, it will soon be self-defeating.

"Ishikawa-kun, how much grain does Gu Huai still have?" Maeda asked.

"Very little, less than 100,000 catties, it will definitely not meet our needs, we must find another way."

"Baga! No, Ishikawa-kun, according to our grain storage plan, there shouldn't be more to that. Maeda Mingyou stood up, he was already annoyed by the robbery and destruction of the grain in the military column, and when he heard that there was only so little grain left in Gu Huai, his heart was even more angry, so he couldn't help but question Ishikawa Ichiro.

"Feng Sang, you can explain." Ishikawa Ichiro said disapprovingly, he didn't answer Maeda Akiyu's question, but smiled and pushed Feng Tiandong out.

"Report to Your Excellency General Maeda, in the process of the imperial army assembling Guhuai, many troops were ambushed by the Eighth Route Army, and the baggage, especially the serious loss of food, in order for the imperial army not to go hungry, I had to borrow a large amount of food." Feng Tiandong explained.

"Baga!" Maeda Mingyou scolded loudly, and I don't know if he was scolding Feng Tiandong or the Eighth Route Army.

At this time, the unknown devil major general said: "Baga! Now what? ”

Maeda Mingyou frowned, stretched out his hand and pointed at Feng Tiandong, and was about to say something, when he saw a devil second lieutenant break into the conference room: "Report, General Maeda, North China Command phone!" ”

Maeda Akisuke swallowed back the words that came to his mouth, waved his hand, and left the conference room to answer the phone.

After a while, Maeda Akisuke, who had answered the phone, walked in, the anxious look on his face disappeared completely, squinted his eyes and scanned the people in the conference room, and walked over to Ishikawa Ichiro and another devil major general, and the three of them muttered a few words in a low voice.

"Haha......" Then, Maeda Akiyu laughed and said to everyone, "The imperial army's sweep of the western part of Beiping has begun, and it is progressing smoothly, and at present, the first phase of the combat mission has ended, the imperial army has achieved a major victory, and we have intercepted a large amount of grain. ”

Then, Maeda Akiyu continued to say aloud: "Everyone, the North China Command has decided to support us with some food, hahaha, our food is no longer short, and the key now is how to transport it to Guhuai!" This batch of grain is in Laishui, and you can tell me how you can transport it without fail. ”

Hearing Maeda Mingyou's words, Feng Tiandong's heart was churning, what this meant, the devil had launched an attack on the Pingxi base area, and he had also grabbed a large amount of food. How could this be, it must be due to insufficient preparation, and the food was not taken away and hidden during the transfer.

Feng Tiandong felt a burst of self-blame in his heart, secretly blaming himself for not being able to obtain information about the enemy's attack on the Pingxi base area in advance.

"Taijun, there's no need to transport the grain to Guhuai again, it's laborious, and it's not over if it's distributed directly to the troops." In order to disrupt the devil's grain transportation plan, Feng Tiandong said first.

"Baga!" Which devil major general shouted.

Ishikawa Ichiro stretched out his hand and motioned for Feng Tiandong not to say more, while he looked at Akeyu Maeda and the devil major general.

Maeda Akisuke waved his hand and kicked everyone else out of the office, leaving only Ishikawa Ichiro and the devil major general, and the three of them had a secret discussion behind closed doors.

After a while, Ishikawa Ichiro walked out of the conference room and said to Feng Tiandong, who was waiting outside: "Feng Sang, in five days, General Fujiyama will send heavy troops to escort the grain to Mancheng by car, and we will organize manpower to transport it to Guhuai, and you will assist the Municipal Office in arranging the preparations." ”

"Hello!"

………………

There was a solution to the grain problem for the time being, and General Tengshan of the 110th Division also took over the transportation task.

Feng Tiandong had a few days of relatively free time, and Cao Miaomiao's time to go to the United States was not far away, for safety, before the devil sweep began, he asked Ishikawa Ichiro for two days off, preparing to personally send Miao Miao back to Tianjin.

Ishikawa Ichiro felt that Feng Tiandong was also very hard at this time, and there was really nothing in front of him, so he agreed to his request.

………………

Before leaving Gu Huai, Feng Tiandong made an appointment to meet Liu Baosheng.

"Is there a big loss in the Pingxi base area?" Feng Tiandong asked.

"It's not very clear, there's not much news coming."

Feng Tiandong shook his head and slammed his fist on the table: "Alas! It's all to blame me, but I didn't find out the devil's plan to attack Pingxi. ”

"Don't blame yourself, it's none of your business." Liu Baosheng comforted.

"Lao Liu, in two or three days. The devil will transport grain from Laishui to Mancheng to see if he can find a way to get him, but be careful, the devil will definitely send heavy troops to escort him. ”

"I'll report to the military region right away."

"I'm going to Tianjin tomorrow."

"Stay safe."

In the end, Feng Tiandong instructed Liu Baosheng: "Oh! By the way, Lao Liu, ask me about the military region, what is the current situation of Zhang Xinzhuang Market. ”
